Well, I think that I covered that this is the wrong place to post that kind of inquiry. But I can tell you are frustrated. I've got nothing for ya, but let's see if anyone from the right group sees this and can jump in.

Oh, interwebz, please do not let this become the open thread from hell.

I have been using Portfolio Mananger for a long time. Now you people decided to retire it and are now running a different version of Portfolio Mananger.

This new version stinks in my opion. It does not hold a candle with the older version. It also hangs up and crashes all the time. It is so slow I can shave and shower while it changes frames. The graphs seem to be messed up. Mine seem to show a percentage all the time and can't seem to find a means of correcting it. Also all of my trading history is gone. You did not bother bringing that forward.

It seems to me we can't talk to anyone involved with this mess. It might help but that is questionable! Looks like this is going to be like Vista, junk it after we struggle with it for a few years.

Frank-I'm not sure I understand your point. I don't feel "on the bottom of things" and I don't see that as the reason why people ask me to connect them. I think it's because they want to connect with a real person and here I am. I don't think it's an HR thing

Jim- Yeah, probably. He's got a team of people that handle the random e-mails. Sometimes they trickle their way over to recruiting. I'm not sure where your dinner invitation would trickle but I could guess ; )

So I'm guessing that e-mail asking for a casual sitdown dinner with Bill is going to go unanswered.

Phooey.

Heather, so many roles get reversed these days that sometimes hr people end up on the bottom of things. This is just the way things are.

then they have a bit or reading to do before they shoot off a mail. If you are going to "ask" for something, I think it's reasonable to expect that they would at least want to know who they are asking.

Davis-that sounds like a good policy. The thought of being a cyber-celebrity! Hah!

Dennis-I have a friend that went to Purdue and was in the engineering program (OK, that is actualy true but I'm just joking and it was in the late 80s). You know sometimes I don't even know where to send people. It's kind of weird but I often tell them to see if the group has a blogger they can connect with.
